Very helpful and informative. Dr Hanci was cheerful even though it was a Sunday.
Dr Hanci was great with my son and with me as the parent. He listened and explained everything really well.
An excellent doctor that sees the child holistically and not just as a medical case. Patient, polite and reassuring.
Easy to understand the points he’s making, he is very nice and clear.
Excellent care and great to explain things directly to Izzy
Dr Hanci has been brilliant with my child. He has asked simple questions and been very patient with her answers. Everything we need to know and do has been made clear.
Polite and kind and provided a thorough explanation.
Dr Hanci put both myself and my daughter at ease immediately. My daughter is 14 years old which is a tricky age. She is neurodiverse and so not all encounters with professional adults are comfortable but the opposite was the case with Dr Hanci. He actively listened and took lots of time to understand symptoms but more general information about my daughter and her challenges to understand the bigger picture. Dr Hanci is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced and we felt in the best hands. Dr Hanci took the time to explain the diagnosis, possible treatments and non medical interventions that may also be helpful. My daughter said she felt heard and trusted Dr Hanci. We can't thank him enough for the his time, care, expertise, thoroughness of his investigations and holistic approach.
Dr Hanci is a thorough practitioner who cares about the wellbeing of his patients and always ensures that all concerns are addressed and investigated. He has a calm, reassuring manner and he has a holistic approach..
Dr Hanci has made my 15 year old daughter feel so heard. For the first time in years it feels like we are starting to take the right steps forward to unravel what is going on in her abdomen area. I really like Dr Hanci's investigative approach and willingness to take a deeper dive. He was so kind to my daughter and myself especially as I have been a bit frantic with worry. We literally skipped out of our last appointment feeling happy that we had been given a diagnoses and a confident medication plan plus an understanding of what the next steps might be. We saw Dr Hanci at a community presentation on Children's Gut health and his knowledge was very impressive, we learnt a lot and feel very lucky that my daughter now has him in the driving seat of her medical care.
I would highly recommend Dr Hanci for his outstanding paediatric expertise. He is an experienced and compassionate Consultant Paediatrician with specialist skills in gastroenterology and general paediatrics, dedicated to providing exceptional care for children and young people.
